A Taste of Tradition

At Chicago Steak Company, we invite you to taste tradition. Since 1865 with the founding of the Union Stock Yards, Chicago has been at the heart of high-quality American meats. Chicago Steak Company proudly carries on that tradition. We specialize in hand-cut, Mid-West raised, Premium Angus USDA Prime beef - cut by Chicago butchers with five generations of experience. If you're looking for the very best steaks on the market, then you've come to the right place.

Entrepreneur's Selection

Every cut of steak in each of the assortments we offer is certified USDA Prime or upper-1/3 USDA Choice, putting our steaks in the top 2% of beef worldwide. Each steak is hand-selected and hand carved to ensure you get the best cut possible, and then dry- or wet-aged to intensify its naturally delicious flavor. That is why the Entrepreneur's Selection offers steaks that are among the most flavorful, juicy, and tender steaks you'll ever eat. They're the same amazing steaks you'll get at 5-star restaurants like Jordan's or Ditka's. In short, the very best steaks your money can buy.

Enterprising. Visionary. Leadership. These are all qualities that deserve to be rewarded. What better way to recognize excellence than with a handsome package of gourmet steaks. This collection of USDA Prime, Wet Aged Steaks & Gourmet Meats are the perfect way to let someone know they've "arrived".

Cooking

If your steak is frozen, we recommend thawing it in a pan, thawing in a pan helps catch any drippings that may occur, under refrigeration for 24 hours.

Season with our signature steak seasoning.

When turning your steak, be sure to use tongs and not a fork. A fork will puncture the steak and allow for the juices to escape the steak.

Allow your steak to rest for half of the cooking time. This allows for the juices to flow back into the center of the steak.

Steak Cooking Tips

1. Plan ahead. Know the cut of steak you are cooking. A steak is more flavorful and tender if not overcooked.

2. Preheat your grill or broiler to high. Charcoal coals should be ashen grey and red-hot. When cooking on top of the range, the cast iron skillet or grill pan should be hot, but not smoking.

3. Season your steak with salt & pepper or a blended mix to taste.

4. Lightly oil your cooking surface.

5. Sear the steaks on first side using the times listed on the Steak-Cooking Chart as a guide. Flip when juices begin to bead on the surface.

6. Cook your steaks on the second side and use the steak cooking chart below as a guide for time. Less time will be needed on the second side. Steaks may cook quickly, so be attentive.

7. Gauge doneness. This may be determined by touch or meat thermometer. A rare steak will feel very soft when touched and will have an internal temperature of 120° - 125°F. Medium rare steak will feel soft and spongy to the touch and register 130° F, medium steaks will offer resistance when touched and register 140° -145° F. Well-done steaks will be firm with an internal temperature of 160° F.

8. Rest your steak. Allow steaks to stand for 5 minutes before serving. This lets the juices flow from the center of the meat to the exterior, resulting in a juicy & succulent steak.

The Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most common wines you’ll see at a dinner party. It’s not only considered the best red wine to have with steak, but also one of the most well received wines overall. Cabernet Sauvignon tends to stand out with its fruity flavors that give contrast to the beefy flavors. Red wines pair well with more marbled steaks because the fat will decrease how much you taste the bitterness, while the tannins enhance the steak flavor.

While red wine with steak may be the classic pairing, white wines shouldn’t be exempt from the party. The acid in a glass of dry white wine has a similar impact on beef as tannins. Whites also tend to taste best when served chilled, which can create a lovely temperature contrast between a sizzling steak and cool sip of white or rose. In short, if you’re more of a chardonnay fan, you are still invited to the steak and wine pairing party.
